▲ 27 ▼ Smallest GUI distro (for a low-RAM Chromebook)? (programming.dev) submitted 4 months ago by Flagstaff@programming.dev to c/linux@programming.dev 27 comments fedilink hide all child comments PeppermintOS? I'm trying to prepare an ancient Chromebook C202S for Linux and have had some ideas from antiX to MXLinux and Loc-OS, but it seems that PeppermintOS may be among the best choices. The tech level of this Chromebook's end user is unlikely to work well with Arch + BSPWM, which was recommended to me by someone else.
